Velodyne Acoustics Deep Blue 8 Compact High-Performance Powered Subwoofer
The Velodyne Acoustics Deep Blue 8 is a compact, high-performance powered subwoofer designed to deliver precise, pressurized low-frequency impact in smaller listening rooms and living spaces. Its 8" front-firing, high-excursion driver is powered by a robust Class AB amplifier, giving you fast, articulate bass that integrates seamlessly with both hi-fi and home theater systems. A rigid, sealed MDF cabinet with a thick 52 mm front baffle minimizes resonance and distortion, while flexible controls and connection options make integration straightforward with virtually any system.
Use the Deep Blue 8 to bring believable weight to movie soundtracks, gaming effects and music, without overpowering your room or dominating your décor.
